説明

Two phthalocyanines possessing carboxylate groups ((TBA)4H2Pc·1 and (TBA)4H2Pc·2) form 1:2 supramolecular complexes with lithium cation-encapsulated C60 (Li(+)@C60) [H2Pc·1(4-)/(Li(+)@C60)2 and H2Pc·2(4-)/(Li(+)@C60)2] in a polar mixed solvent. From the UV-vis spectral changes, the binding constants (K) were estimated as ca. 10(12) M(-2). Upon the photoexcitation of constructed supramolecular complexes, photoinduced electron transfer occurred to form the charge-separated (CS) state. The lifetime of the CS state was determined to be 1.2 ms for H2Pc·2(4-)/(Li(+)@C60)2, which is the longest CS lifetime among the porphyrinoid/fullerene supramolecular complexes. H2Pc·1(4-)/(Li(+)@C60)2 also afforded the long-lived CS state of 1.0 ms. The spin state of the long-lived CS states was determined to be a triplet, as indicated by the EPR signal at g = 4. The reorganization energy (λ) and the electronic coupling term were determined to be λ = 1.70 eV, V = 0.15 cm(-1) from the temperature dependence of the rate constant for the charge recombination of the CS state of H2Pc·1(4-)/(Li(+)@C60)2. The energy of the CS state (0.49 eV) is much smaller than the reorganization energy, indicating that the back-electron-transfer process is located in the Marcus normal region. The small electronic coupling term results from the spin-forbidden back electron transfer due to the triplet CS state. Supramolecular complexes of anionic zinc phthalocyanines with Li(+)@C60 were also prepared and investigated. The ZnPc·4(4-)/Li(+)@C60 supramolecular nanoclusters were assembled on the optically transparent electrode (OTE) of nanostructured SnO2 (OTE/SnO2) to construct the dye-sensitized solar cell. The IPCE (incident photon-to-photocurrent efficiency) values of OTE/SnO2/(ZnPc·4(4-)/Li(+)@C60)n were much higher than the sum of the two IPCE values of the individual systems OTE/SnO2/(Li(+)@C60)n and OTE/SnO2/(ZnPc·4(4-))n, covering the near-infrared region.
